Israel, much like the fortress of Tel-Chai that Jospeh Trumpeldor fought to defend against Arab conquerors in 1920, finds itself beseiged by enemies both within and without. Terrorists, would-be friends inside and outside Israel, and even bad government officials. Here are the discussions of one proud Zionist resident on the state of the nation and abroad.

10 officers shot at Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas, 4 murdered

The sniper who participated in an attack that killed five officers and wounded seven others during a demonstration in downtown Dallas was hell-bent on killing white people, especially white police officers, police said Friday.

“The suspect said he was upset about Black Lives Matter. He said he was upset about the recent police shootings,” Dallas Police Chief David Brown said at a news conference.

Brown said the suspect, who police have not identified, told officers of his hatred during an hours-long standoff after a hail of gunfire disrupted an organized march. Protesters had gathered there to speak out against the police-involved shootings of two African-American men earlier this week in Minnesota and Louisiana.

The suspect, who continued to fire at officers after they cornered him in a parking garage, died about 2 a.m. Friday when police used a robotic device armed with an explosive to kill the man, Brown said. He told officers he was acting alone, but police said investigators are still trying to identify other potential assailants. The chief declined to provide specifics.

“We’re going to keep these suspects guessing,” Brown said.

Fourteen people in all were wounded in Thursday night’s ambush, which sent hundreds of demonstrators running for cover near City Hall. The victims included two civilians.

For somebody who was hell-bent on killing whites, he sure didn't seem to care if he struck blacks as well. This has been described as one of the worst days for law enforcement since 9-11.

From Jerusalem, Israel

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
